Lantern's Profile

leave it to Scott Snyder to write the coolest of comics!

If Ram V is smart, and if he decides to keep the "refugees welcome" storyline, he will make it a little more nuanced than that. Maybe writing an arc where one of the gods actually does something bad and treats earth like his or her playground. Because that would be an actual commentary on today's politics, like, are ALL refugees welcome? Every single one of them? Even the ones who will kill a random baby with a knife? Or, in the case of the DC universe, a god who would cause a death and not feel remorse for that? I mean, the people from Apokolips are there.

Two sins: Keli still existing and this issue being boring. Except for the Guy Gardner parts, which were fine

DC needs to start firing people. ASAP. I know people would be mad, but the fact that this comic was pitched, approved, written, drawn, approved again, printed, approved AGAIN and published is enough to think that some people have a job they should not have.

Lovecraft

The need to drop Keli Quintela. Kill her, I don't care. She is part of the idiotic "black teenager girl is smarter than every being in the universe combined and can hack/create her own superpowered armor/suit" trope kind of thing. It's so stupid

Another solid Absolute Power tie-in by Jeremy Adams! I miss him writing The Flash, but I am so happy he's on the Green Lantern book! That dude can do no wrong, it seems! But the back story by Marc Guggenheim also deserves a lot of praise. It was a short, emotional, awesome ride, that gives us a little bit more depth on the situation involving the Green Lantern Corps. Simply amazing!

To quote Homelander: "It was perfect. Perfect. Everything, down to the last, minute details".

Absolute Power #1 felt serious, like things that were happening mattered. Task Force VII #1 feels like the writer thought "this comic has two kids as center characters, so of course it needs to be comic relief!" It also doesn't add anything interesting to the main event. Yes, they were imprisoned, Parasite is probably dead or unconscious, at least, and now we wait for the next issue. One word to describe Task Force VII #1: pointless. I hope the next one is better.
